I lucked out yesterday... Skyler's Kindergarten class went on a field trip late enough in the afternoon that I could go as the chaperone. Working moms never get to do that!

Her class went down the street to sing songs at a senior citizen home, dressed as elves, of course!

We rode a bus because it was zero degrees. no degrees. none.

They did their little show,and while they were mingling with the old folks, I realized I could take everyone's photo and Skyler could give them out as Christmas presents! Here are some of my favorites:

We zipped over to Target to print them, and then later that night, we assembled the rest of the little packages.

Skyler and I made these reindeer cookies:

And then we made little packages for everyone- a group photo of the class and everyone got their own elf portrait- one of skyler's handmade salt-dough ornaments- and a reindeer cookie tucked behind.

All packed up and ready to go! Skyler couldn't go to sleep because she was so excited to deliver the goods.I hope I still have enough energy to do this for Reed someday too. I'm tired.

"Love yourself, for who and what you are; protect your dream and develop your talent to the fullest extent. Don't lose sight of your goals. No matter what the obstacles are, don't let anything deter you from your best effort. Don't allow anyone to tell you what you can and cannot do. Be tough, be stubborn, love yourself, and find friends who believe in you."--Joan Benoit Samuelson
